Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Jaguars did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Jaguars took Kingsley Eguakun at pick 234, roughly 48 spots before his name belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Odunze.

They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a weapon on the perimeter, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on T'Vondre Sweat. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Audric Estime
No edge and no loss on Audric Estime in pick No. 96; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams at slot 115 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick116 Rnd4 Josh Newton
They paid a round early for Josh Newton in pick 116, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at No. 117 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick152 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at pick 152 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Wiley at pick No. 195, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick211 Rnd6 Myles Cole
They jumped the gun on Myles Cole, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick234 Rnd7 Kingsley Eguakun
Kingsley Eguakun at slot 234 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick235 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Joshua Cephus well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
